I am proud of her for taking that stand that it\u2019s not okay as it\u2019s not. I think in the US, it was happening with a lot of artistes on stage and they got extremely angry with that behaviour. I am happy Mouni did this,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the entire chat with Sunny Leone here:<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">Ask her about her personal experience and Sunny shares, \u201cI haven\u2019t gone through something like what she has and if anything is happening in my surroundings during my performance, I don\u2019t even notice that. I am usually in my own world when I am performing. It\u2019s just seven to eight minutes of my life, so I just go on stage, perform and then I am out. I am not paying attention to what\u2019s happening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">The actor, who will next be seen in Anurag Kashyap&#8217;s Kennedy opposite actor Rahul Bhat, adds, \u201cIt\u2019s pure madness usually what\u2019s happening around during such performances. I performed at a New Year event and there were 12000 people around, so I wasn\u2019t noticing what was happening there and if someone was saying anything. I was just focused on doing my job. But having said that, the audience should respect the artiste.\u201d Sunny was supposed to perform in Mathura on the New Year&#8217;s eve but her performance was cancelled after protests were held claiming it would go against the city&#8217;s image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Recently, actor Mouni Roy had opened up about facing harassment as she was performing on stage at a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299240,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[53638,93,61,60,129470,270,141884,141885,60559,141886],"class_list":["post-299239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-actor","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-mouni-roy","tag-movies","tag-new-year-performance","tag-public-event","tag-sunny-leone","tag-sunny-leone-mouni-roy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299239","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299239\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/299240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
